I'm 5 feet tall and weighing 133 lbs. I wanted something that would flatten my tummy a bit while I lose the rest of my "baby weight" and tone my abs back up. My hips are 40" and my waist is 29" - so I ordered a size large as indicated on their size chart. (I wear a size 6 - 8 in pants right now, but I went by their measurements) I think the panties were too big because they provided no compression to my tummy nor did they provide any lift to my buttocks. They did however hit at a very un-flattering point on the front of my thighs - so it looked like they were cutting into me and like my thighs were even bigger then they are. (ICK!)
I've not given up an Dumi though - I've ordered their Cheeky panty in size Medium and will be reviewing it once it arrives. Wish me luck - I REALLY want them to be fabulous!
HerRoom Response: Being petite in stature will cause the panty to have a higher waist. Criss D from North Carolina
